Yes—pigment inks are generally more forgiving than dye inks because they tend to sit closer to the paper surface, so bleeding is usually less of a problem. The bigger issue with handmade paper is often its uneven, porous surface: some areas may absorb too much ink while others may repel it.

If the paper prints poorly as-is, the usual solution is an ink-receptive coating made for inkjet printing. Community suggestions included products such as Golden Digital Ground and inkAID, both intended to help nonstandard papers and surfaces accept ink more consistently.

A DIY answer suggested a very thin clear matte spray followed by a thin layer of diluted white glue, then drying and pressing flat if needed. That may help with cockling and surface sealing, but it’s more experimental and may affect archival quality, color, and texture.

Best approach: test a few sheets first. Start with the paper uncoated, then compare it against samples coated with a purpose-made inkjet ground. Keep the coating thin and even, and make sure the sheet is flat enough to feed safely through the printer.
